I have realized that reading (novels/books) can give me one thing poetry cannot. It has and always will give me a sense of freedom of relief from the outside world. I just got finished reading ‘Sweethearts,’ by Sara Zarr I highly recommend it. I read it in one sitting; it has 217 pages full and was an outstanding book. Yes, I am a bookworm, go-ahead laugh point stare I don’t care. Reading gives me a relaxation, I love reading. For an instant I’m not worrying about my friends problems or me. (Which I worry or over think things every time I have a chance to do so,) I think about the worst in life (eternal pessimist) I think about all the bad things happening or what the new day will bring upon me. I say to myself “the new day only brings more problems and more scars to worry about when I’m older, more scarring memories to look back on later to make me sad,” that’s what I do most of the time when I’m thinking, thinking about all those bad things that’s happened to me or my friends, just worrying in general. When I open a book and stick my nose into it, my worries are relived. I’m so solely concentrated on the book and the things in it that I can’t think about those things, when I read a book I am totally all in all engaged into it…like its my second heartbeat. I try to figure out what will happen; sometimes the suspense is so high I’m tipping off my chair. I may know what will happen, but I can’t stand all the dramatic irony. The book fills me up; I can understand everything so completely. I just love the sheer details books give, all the pain and love ECT. Just really, I’m released…
I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK
